It helps that it's in the perfect location.

The stage is set for three skylines instead of two with Hudson yards. Magnificent downtown skyline photos.

There are really already 4 with the rise of Jersey and Brooklyn's downtowns. I just hope the Hudson yards/west side developments end up as magnificent as in the renders and they dont die a death of a thousand cuts from height reductions, design changes and stalled projects. We have already seen a bit of that.

It probably won't remain that way for long when the Penn Station area gets redeveloped, Hudson Yards will then be absorbed into Midtown.

Thanks for the response.

The inside still has to be prepared before the whole building can open to tenants. It should all be done and over with this year or the beginning of next year at the very latest.

Apparently the Elevator is starting to be dismantled if you look on Earthcam the blue gates are gone at the very top.

The observation decks are set to open about a year from now, so that is about the right estimate.

Forget the inside, the outside isn't complete.

Yes, I am looking forward to it. When they will open? Is that late-2014 or early 2015?

When they will remove it? So when is that?

Wow! It was so beautiful! It's gorgeous! I am really like it lots. It's perfect!

I can't wait to go back the top floors again. We went to Empire State Building for 3 times.
